Running electoral registration - England

Name or signature changes by postal voters

An elector can apply to change their name on the register by submitting a completed change of name form with supporting evidence.1 When an elector with a postal vote changes their name, you should contact them to tell them that although their existing postal vote arrangement will remain in place they will need to make a new application if they are now using a new signature.
